A Great Tun AL.

A special to the Denver Republican
from Georgetown says: The largest min
ing enterprise ever undertaken in Clear
Greek comfy was .inaugurated to-day by
breaking ground for the new Colorado Gen.
trail tunnel. The underground working of
the properties belonging TO the Colorado
Central Consolidated Mining company have
al present six miles of excavation, which
is being constantly increased by power
drills.
The new tunnel commences on the north
slope OF Leavenworth Mountain and will be
run distance OF 100 feet TO cut the Colo
rado Central vein. 1t will pass the apex of
the mountain at perpendicular depth of
LOO feet deep. The tunnel will he eight
by seven feet in size with a double track
and will be run with three shifts of men
working Sergeant power drills.
The purpose of this enterprise is to give
the Colorado Central railroad connection
with this mammoth treasure vault, and at
presen; the mines are two and one-half
miles away, but by tunnelling the mountain
the ore can be loaded on the cars at the
mouth of the tunnel. An abundance of
capital is at the back of the enterprise.
This is an engineering feat scarcely sec

course Of the tunnel will cut the famous
gold veins of Leavenworth, and open up q
country hitherto scarcely accessible because
OF the great depth of the slide. This is the
first time in the history of mining here that
property has proven so valuable as to jus

Canon City Fruit Prospects.

A special from Canon City to the Denver
Republican says Summer has at last come,
and we find upon looking over the country
that, as usual, Fremont county's fruit and
crop prospects are much better than the
growing OF the cronic kicker-would have
lead us 10 suppose. 1t is true that some of
the fruit in the gardens and yards about
town wss killed by the recent freeze. This
was mostly owing to the fact that the refiec-
tion OF The sun from the buildings caused
the fruit to bud and bloom much sooner in
town than it did in the surrounding coun-
try; but even here in the town where the
effect of the freeze was most disastrous
there will still be fair crop of apples, some
pears few cherries and plenty of straw
berries, blackberries, raspberries aud goose
berries.
All through this section of the country.
outside of the Il WINS, the prospect for fruit
is excellent. There will be little scarcity
of pears and plums, and some few who un-
covered their grapes too early will not be
favored with the abundant crop of that
fruit which will fill the vines of their more
prudent neighborS
The prospect fcS falm crops in the sur.
rounding country is good, and the ranch.

part of April was Just what we wanted, as
1t saved him great deal or irrigating al
that time, and the snow that was piled up
in the mountains will insure the water sup,
ply through the dry months preceding the
July rains.
The little damage done to the fruit of this
section during the recent cold snap was
more than Offset by the great good that the
rain and snow did our range country. AT

Volcanoes in Arizona.

Tucson, Ariz., May Am earth
day. No one was injured. but considerable
damage was done TO buildings; goods were
thrown from the shelves of the stores and
many houses were cracked. The shock
was attended by rumbling sound. Many
clocks stopped in the city and the entire
population fed to the streets terror-strick-
en-. The Court House cupola swayed like
the mast of a ship in turbulent sea and
the building seemed as though it were top
pling over. When the shock struck Santa
Catalina Mountain, great slices of the
mountain We're torn from its side and
thrown to its base. and vast clouds of dust
rose above its crest, 1000 feet above The sea
level.
At three different points from three TO
four miles apart il was believed for some
time that a volcano han burst out from the
crest of the mountain. One towering peak
which was known as "The Old Castle" a
prominent-land mark from Tucson, has en-
tireiy disappeared. The extent of the dam
age can not be told for several days. This
was the first earthquake that was ever eS-
perienced in Tucson. The public school
building rocked to and fro like cradle and
some of the plastering fell, creating the ut
most CONSERVATION among the scholars.
School was at once dismissed for fear of a
repetition of the shock, 1t lasted according
to n gentleman who timed 1t, just four min
utes. One or two slight vibrations have
since been felt. The movement of the
tremor was from the northwest. Shortly
after the earthquake volcano broke out
twenty-five miles south of this place in the
Total Wreck Mountains. The sky is bril-
liantly illuminated.
A party in from the vicinity of the San
Pedro River reports the ground as opening
by six inches, and the water is rising in
places that were before perfectly dry.
Smoke was noticed about 5 o'cclok which
appeared to be in the neighborhood of the
MILESTONE Mountains, eight miles from
Benson. Some say it is a volcanic erup-
tion, and as nothing of that character has
| ever been known in this region, the greatest
surprise and curiosity exists. Parties came
in on the train last night who report that
fire was seen coming forth from the noun
tain, and lava and smoke can be seen from
the streets OF Benson, nearly twenty miles
from the disturbance. No one has yet per
sonally inspected the discovery but parties
are arranging to go there in private convey.

At first it was thought to be the woods on

Queen RapioIani in Washington.

WASHINGTON, May Queen Kapio-
lani, Princess Lilinakilani and the mem
bers of their suite called at the White House
at noon to day and paid their respects to
the President and Mrs. Cleveland. The
Queens party were accompanied by M.
Carter, the Hawaiian Minister, Mrs Carter.
Mr. L. A. Brown, of the State Department;
Captain Taylor, of the army, and Iieuten-
ant Rogers, of tie f,avT. They were met in
the main entrance by Secretary Bayardand
Assistant Secretary Adee and escorted to
the Blue Parlor, where the President and
Mrs. Cleveland awaited them. The room
had been decorated for the occasion with
palms, ferns and flowers, and the adjoining
parlors were similarly adorned.
The Queen was presented to the
President and Mrs. Cleveland by Secretary
Bayard, and the other members of the par
ty were presented by the Hawaiian minis
ter. The reception was rather informal in
character; no set speeches were made and
the visit, which lasted about fifteen min
utes, was devoted to general conversation.
The Queen was elaborately attired in a
rich black satin dress, the entire front OF
which was thickly embroidered in gold.
The Princess, who is in mourning, was
dressed in plain black. The gentlemen OF
the party wore rich costumes of which gold
lace formed prominent feature. The rep.
resentatives of the army and navy wore
full dress uniforms, but the rest wore the
plain civilian dress.
After the reception the Queen and her
Marty returned to their hotel and devoted
the afternoon to official callers.

The Colorado Midland Mystery Solved.

Denver Republi, an.
At the meeting of the Directors OF
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe road at
Topeka on Thursday, a line from Ness
City, Kansas, to Colorado Springs was pro-
jected to connect with the Midland railroad
with Salt Lake City as the objective point,

Division of the Union Pacific, running be-
tween that road and the main line of the
Atchison and Pueblo. This important ac-
ton apparently settles the mooted ques-
tion of the control of the Colorado Midland
railroad. From the first it has been ap-
parent that this road has been supported by
some powerful combination. No one cup
posed for an instant that it was to be a
mere local line depending upon traffic be-
tween Colorado Springs, Leadville
and Aspen. There was too much
money behind il. Besides it is one of the
completest and most substantially con-
structed tracks in the West and as piece
of mountain railroad it has not its equal.

of eighty-fve miles of marvelously well
constructed road hidden among mountains
it now transpires that it is simply part OF
the most gigantic railroad system the world

ST. PETERSBURG. May 2.-One Of the
persons who was Just convicted OF plotting
against the Czar is student named Ouai-
ianoff, the son of a high Russian ofiiciaL
During the trial he displayed the highest
intelligence and maintained the Most dig
nfied manner. He entered into minute
scientific dispute with Feodoroff, the re-
nowned chemist and he compelled the lat
ter to acknowledge the prisoner in the right
and he himself in the wrong. At the final
sitting Oualianoff made a brilliant speech
in which he declared that neither he nor his
companions feared death. He could imag-
inc nothing more sublime than to die in an
endeavor 10 deliver unfortunate Russian
people, and hundreds Of young men would

A Fnuou. Detective.

James Jackson. the famous State
detective, resides in Sing Sing, and is
generally in attendance at the prison.
His duties are to examine carefully the
face of every convict rs he enters. and
to scrutinize every visitor in order to
prevent any discharged convict seeing
his pals. Occasionally he has to make
.ong Journeys in pursuit of runaway
prisoners or to identify criminals con-
victed in other States. He never makes
a mistake: if once he looks man in
the eve he will know him under any dis
guise. as he tells his man by the look
of his eyes. Once an escaped convict
had his nose pared down one-third. but
Jackson detected him at once, not
withstanding this remarkable change
of feature. Mr.. Jackson is about FIVE
feet eight inches in height, about S5
years old, of light and sinewy build,
with black hair and piercing black eyes,
and is altogether remarkably hand
some. He knows about 10000 crimi-
nails. and it is simply wonderful that
he can distinguish the features of every
one. On his long Journeys he eats
very moderately and always takes one
Brandreth pill at night. When much
fatigued by the jolting of the cars on
his tiresome trips he uses two Alicock's
Porous Plasters on the small of the
back, which give him renewed vigor
and quickly relieve him of all weari-
ness. These are the only two rene
dies he uses. and he attributes his vigor
and remarkable health to Allcock's
Porous Plasters and Brandreth's Pills.

WHAT EYES ARE SAID TO SHOW

Generally speaSing, blue eyes signify con-
Stancy and devotion TO friends.
Black eyes denote as q rule a sensuous
character and an irconstant, tickle DISPOSE
ton. However, there are some noted excep-
tons to this rule
The main characteristics of the violet eye,
which is called the woman's eye, are affec-
ton and purity, chivalric belief and limited
or deficient intellectually.
Gray eyes are the most expressive of all
eyes and denote strong qualities of mind and
soul Persons with gray eyes usually bave a
great deal of patriotism.
Self satisfaction and conceit are commonly
the characteristic traits represented by the
green eye. When the tinge verges oil yellow
ishness it denotes that the possessor is gifted
with strong powers of imagination
The very light blue eye is characteristic of
the northern races and in a woman it sug-
gests constancy and truth, steadfastness, sim
picity, courage and purpose. In man it
is apt to denote phlegmatic disposition.
Brown eyes are the eyes of the south and
east and denote as a general rule passion and
lack of originality. In women they mean
Jealousy and cruelty very often, and in men
courage, suDCrstition and mild reCkleSsness.
Blue Eyes usually go with light hair, but
when they so with dark hair and complexion
there is coupled with the affectionate quail
ties tendency to deceive, stimulated by an
Rmb 'tion Tor conquest and leading to the
qualification of admiration.
